Mixed Greens: Oz group to develop big solar in Indonesia

A consortium of Australian companies comprising The Solar Guys International and Mitabu Australia have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the government of South Sumatra to develop megawatt-scale solar power projects. The projects, to be installed under SGI-Mitabu’s “One Solar Watt Per Person” program – which aims to deliver one watt of solar power for every man, woman and child in Indonesia – will range from 5MW to 50MW. The agreement will see the solar companies and the South Sumatran government jointly build, own and operate the plants.
